Posted on entry Bestsellers, okaysellers, and slippery figurative language ::: October 22, 2006, 02:55 AM:
While I have been a regular reader of Making Light for Internet-aeons, and an admirer of PNH and TNH for much longer, this is my first post here. (End of obligatory newbie intro.)

It was worrying when the posts abruptly ceased earlier this month, and so I am very glad to read that the hiatus was for good cause and that everyone is well.

Regarding Patrick's post: The subtle difference lost in Cory's post is that between 'driven by' and 'sustained by'. The book publishing industry may be driven by the desire for regular bestsellers, but my feeble understanding is that it is sustained by the 'okaysellers'. (OT: what a great new wordlet!)

AG, signing off, still thrilled to discover that my editorial heroes are thinking progressives...
